"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I'm looking forward to read other books by Richard Dawkins.
BTW, wolf116 list is awesome! I love Bertrand Russel and Nietzsche too!

I've read almost all of the books "suggested" in this thread and they're all great reads. You'd be suprised how many people glos over important reads like that and don't take to heart the importance of understanding over effort. Still this book is fun and for the advanced minds. It's a modern day "Fistful of dollars" novel. It shows how beating the office and being your own man is a matter of grit and power as opposed to an individual strength that's fed to the masses today. It'll change your life, if you want to pay the price.

Just started it today. Pretty intense, although I can't really get into the spirituality part, but I def am digging the zen message and the living in the present and separating myself from my thoughts concepts. It seems like some of what he says you should take with a grain of salt thoBoxer said:The Power Of Now
MUST READ.
